I have one that came without instructions or videos. I see now that they are advertised with videos, and would love to borrow one.

I have not used my duckfoot at all.

Thats great news. I quit myself 6/1/04 and have been using nicorette gum. First the 4mg now the 2mg and starting to wean off of it. I have quit many times before, sometimes for as long as a year. Its true that "just one or two" will creep right back into full scale smoking. Keep it up. Its worth it.

The color thing IS certainly interesting isn't it?

But truthfully, the Communist Party of the United States actually formally endorsed Kerry.

See it here for yourself. http://www.cpusa.org/

Thankfully, Bush won.

Four More Years of President Bush

I had to do this because I did not like the "thumbs down" on the other post.

Here is a County by County Perspective...

The Red ones are those that voted to re-elect the president.

I thought this might be interesting to some who may not have access to it.

Interesting how it differs for each of us. I find GIN-1 to be easy to maintain and like it a lot.

CPM440V is the hardest one for me to get sharpened right.

I don't like all of the holes, but appreciate the function.

I have never much cared whether the clip was tip up, down or sideways, I just got used to the character of each individual peice.

Some, the older G10 Rookie in particular, and the G10 Standards too, I prefer with no clip at all. I rarely ...
